Dynamics and energetics of coronal loops undergoing decayless oscillations KU Leuven
The Sun, as the nearest star to Earth, has been extensively studied ever since the development of modern Astrophysics. The large number of multi-frequency observations has shed light on many of the phenomena existing in the solar interior and the solar atmosphere, but not without generating a whole range of questions regarding the nature of these processes.
The solar atmosphere is not an assembly of static, clearly defined layers, but ...
Innovative Z-scheme photocatalysis for solar-to-chemical energy conversion KU Leuven
Understanding the Behaviour of Building Integrated Photovoltaic Facades. Numerical and Experimental Analysis KU Leuven
Climate research has shown that anthropogenic CO2 emissions are the primary cause of global warming. The higher global temperatures associated with global warming are disrupting local climates and ecosystems in a catastrophic manner. In order to limit global warming, a deep transformation of all human systems is imperative. Among others, an unprecedented increase in the use of renewable energy sources is necessary to achieve a climate-neutral ...

The study of turbulence in the chromosphere using a two-fluid approach and adaptive mesh refinement KU Leuven
Seismic studies for prominences KU Leuven
In this PhD, we study the oscillatory dynamics and formation mechanisms of solar prominences. We include a multi-threaded structure in a 2D setting to study prominence oscillations. We do not preselect the modes but rather allow them to happen freely, considering the properties of the implemented source of the oscillations. This approach is novel and has not been studied in detail so far. We emphasize the importance of multidimensionality and ...
